Comfort Cases are backpacks filled with comfort and personal care items

for youth entering the foster care system.

Please see attached flyer for items needed. Cash or purchased donations can be brought to the church on or before May 29th.

Lesley Robinson writes, “I need everything from pj’s to blankets to toiletries to books to socks & stuffed animals. I also need volunteers to ribbon pjs and blankets, bag toiletries, and pack the Comfort Cases. Drivers are always needed to take the Cases to the agencies who distribute them. I also need quart and gallon-sized ziplock bags.
